Assessment of Advanced Wireless Technologies and Antenna Types Trends

This report provides an overview of advanced wireless technologies, including Wi-Fi, WiMAX, Bluetooth, satellite communication, and GI-FI, evaluating their strengths and weaknesses to determine future dominance. It also examines different antenna types such as Yagi, horn, and cellular antennas, concluding that cellular antennas are likely to remain dominant due to their high bandwidth and long-distance communication capabilities. The report suggests that the GI-FI system is expected to become a dominant player in the future due to its high-speed data transfer capabilities, despite its complexity. The analysis considers factors such as cost, implementation complexity, and data transfer rates to assess the potential of each technology and antenna type.

ADVANCE WIRELESS
TECHNOLOGIES

INTRODUCTION
+ A local Engineering group needs the
information about the most recent wireless
technologies.
+ Different Wireless Technologies and antenna
types are evaluated in order to find which
wireless technology and the antenna type will
become a dominant player in future.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF
WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY
+ The different types of advanced wireless
technologies are as follows (Bernardos et al.,
2014)-
+ Wi-Fi
+ WiMAX
+ Bluetooth
+ Satellite Communications
+ GI-FI

WIFI
+ Wi-Fi is a low power wireless
communication technology
that is used to develop a
communication medium
among different electronic
devices. This is a major
advantage of using WIFI
+ WiFi networks have limited
range and allows users who
are in close proximity, to
connect with the router. This
is a disadvantage of WIFI.

WIMAX
+ WiMax is a service that
provides fast web
surfing without
establishment of
connection with internet
(Jiang & Che, 2012)
+ Has different versions,
such as 4G

CONTINUED..
+ The main advantage of
WiMAX is that it offers
transmission of data at
maximum speed.
+ The Disadvantage of
WiMAX is that it is
very costly to
implement.

BLUETOOTH
+ Bluetooth is a wireless
technology with the help of
which a number of devices can
be connected wirelessly.
+ It is generally used for easy file
sharing and it is one of its major
advantages (Heydon, 2013)
+ Bluetooth makes use of radio
waves and it transmission limit
is mainly 15-50 feet.
+ The weakness of Bluetooth is its
short range connection and
associated security issue.

SATELLITE COMMUNICATION
+ It is a mode of used wireless
communication, which allows
the users to stay connected
( virtually) anywhere in the
earth and it is its major strength
(Gagliardi, 2012)
+ The communication transfer is
done between the sender and the
receiver with the help of a
satellite (Bilotti et al., 2012).
+ The disadvantage is that it is too
costly and too complex to
implement.

GI FI SYSTEM
+ GI FI or Gigabit Wireless
is a recent wireless
technology that allows the
wireless transfer of data at
a rate of nearly 5 gigabits
per second.
+ The main advantage of
GIFI system is its high
speed data transfer
+ However, it is complex to
implement.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF ANTENNA
+ The three major types of antenna are-
+ Yagi antenna
+ Horn Antenna
+ Cellular Antenna
+ Yagi is a directional antenna and is one of the most
successful RF antenna
+ Horn antenna consists of a flared waveguide shaped
as a horn
+ Cellular antenna are generally used in
telecommunication.

DOMINANT ANTENNA: CELLULAR
ANTENNA
+ Cellular antenna will become
dominant player in future
because-
+ Cellular antenna offers highest
bandwidth rate and is used for
setting up communications.
+ Cellular antennas help in
establishing connection over long
distance which is one of the major
advantages of cellular antenna.
+ The cost of implementation is
very high, which is its only
weakness.

CONCLUSION
+ After evaluating the different wireless
technologies, it can be concluded that the GI-
FI wireless system is expected to become a
dominant player in future. Along with GI FI
system, cellular antenna is expected to remain
dominant in future as well.
